Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Myristic Acid

Saturated fatty acid, saponification feedstock; insoluble alone, pairs with stearic acid.

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Potassium Hydroxide

Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.

Lauric Acid

Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsification; high comedogenic rating, recommend limiting to 1-2% or combining with other acids.

Glycol Distearate

Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Cocamide MEA

Foam booster and thickener for cleansing products; 1-3%, check compatibility with anionic surfactants

PEG-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Cocos Nucifera Oil

Occlusive moisturizing oil at 1–10%; highly comedogenic, use with caution for oily skin.

Cocos Nucifera Fruit Extract

Coconut fruit extract at 0.1–5%; moisturizing, caution for oily skin at high levels

Cocos Nucifera Water

Coconut water/base; acts as solvent and fragrance component, contains sugars requiring preservatives.

Sapindus Mukorossi Fruit Extract

Saponin-rich extract used as mild surfactant or conditioner; control concentration to avoid excessive degreasing.

Honey Extract

Humectant and skin conditioning agent; hygroscopic, sensitive to pH.

Gossypium Herbaceum Extract

Botanical extract known for soothing and moisturizing benefits, suitable for sensitive skin.

Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract

Chamomile extract used for soothing; check for potential sensitizing allergens.

Olea Europaea Leaf Extract

Olive leaf extract with hydroxytyrosol; antioxidant and polyphenolic; mild fragrance and skin conditioning.

Carica Papaya Fruit Extract

Botanical extract for nourishment and antioxidant benefits; used as a low-concentration additive.

Anthemis Nobilis Flower Water

Chamomile water with soothing and anti-inflammatory effects; contains trace oils, may sensitize ragweed-allergic individuals.

Epilobium Angustifolium Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract

Botanical extract used as a skin conditioning agent

Tea-Cocoyl Alaninate

TEA-Cocoyl Alaninate, anionic surfactant, strong cleansing, pair to reduce irritation

Sodium Metabisulfite

Antioxidant/preservative at 0.05–0.2%; irritating for sensitive skin, avoid with oxidizers

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Sodium Laureth Sulfate

Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation

BHT

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose

High polymer for thickening and film formation; water-soluble, used in physical sunscreens or gels, tacky at high levels

Cocamidopropyl Betaine

Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Polyquaternium-7

Not decoded yet

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Sodium Carbonate

Sodium carbonate; alkaline buffer and thickener; adjusts pH, corrosive at high levels, control dosage.

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Coumarin

Classic fragrance and photosensitizer, EU restriction III/77; high allergen risk, limit in facial products

Benzyl Salicylate

UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
